According to
The Hollywood Reporter, the actress and producer defended the
"Tonight Show" host during a speech for the Producers Guild of
America on Saturday.

"This election is so, so ugly, it’s not business as usual," Fey
said. "I really felt for Jimmy when people were so angry... It’s
not Jimmy who peed in that punch bowl, it’s not Jimmy who created
this horrible world that we’re currently living in.”

At the time, Fallon told TMZ, "Have you seen my
show? I'm never too hard on anyone."

And later when Hillary Clinton came on the "Tonight Show,"
he poked fun at the controversy by giving the
Democratic presidential candidate actual softballs.
